A period transaction is almost identical to a regular transaction,\ -except that it begins with a tilde and has a period expression in\ -place of a payee. For example:\ -\ -@smallexample\ -~ Monthly\ - Expenses:Rent $500.00\ - Expenses:Food $450.00\ - Expenses:Auto:Gas $120.00\ - Expenses:Insurance $150.00\ - Expenses:Phone $125.00\ - Expenses:Utilities $100.00\ - Expenses:Movies $50.00\ - Expenses $200.00 ; all other expenses\ - Assets\ -\ -~ Yearly\ - Expenses:Auto:Repair $500.00\ - Assets\ -@end smallexample\ -\ -These two period transactions give the usual monthly expenses, as well as\ -one typical yearly expense. For help on finding out what your average\ -monthly expense is for any category, use a command like:\ -\ -@example\ -ledger -p "this year" -MAs bal ^expenses\ -@end example\ -\ -The reported totals are the current year's average for each account.\ -\ -Once these period transactions are defined, creating a budget report is as\ -easy as adding @option\{--budget\} to the command-line. For example, a\ -typical monthly expense report would be:\ -\ -@example\ -ledger -M reg ^exp\ -@end example\ -\ -To see the same report balanced against your budget, use:\ -\ -@example\ -ledger --budget -M reg ^exp\ -@end example\ -\ -A budget report includes only those accounts that appear in the\ -budget. To see all expenses balanced against the budget, use\ -@option\{--add-budget\}. You can even see only the unbudgeted expenses\ -using @option\{--unbudgeted\}:\ -\ -@example\ -ledger --unbudgeted -M reg ^exp\ -@end example\ -\ -You can also use these flags with the @command\{balance\} command.}
